“Philanthropy is very important to me and my family. I was a professional fundraiser in the non-profit sector for 12 years and saw first-hand the impact that generous Oklahomans make each year on the causes they love,” said King. “Now, as a volunteer and donor, it’s especially humbling that I have the opportunity to invest in the organizations whose missions align with my family’s passions, namely, hunger relief, homelessness, faith, music, education, and financial literacy.”
In addition to his service on the Boards of each organization, King will serve as Chair of the Finance and Development Committees for Canterbury Voices and on the Investment and Education Grants Committees of the Catholic Foundation of Oklahoma. He is also a vocalist in the Bass section for Canterbury Voices and is a member of the Finance Committee at his home parish, St. Philip Neri in Midwest City, OK.
ChappelWood Financial has a long history of volunteerism and generosity.
In 2017, ChappelWood Founder and CEO, Victoria Woods, worked with Allied Arts to purchase new clothes and tickets for 30 low-income children to attend Oklahoma City Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker at Civic Center Music Hall. That effort sparked the annual Kentucky Derby Soirée benefitting Allied Arts from from 2018 through 2024.
ChappelWood Wealth Manager Weston DePriest, an avid outdoorsman, serves as a volunteer for Oklahoma Ducks Unlimited, whose mission is to conserve, restore, and manage wetlands and associated habitats for North America’s waterfowl.
In recognition of its longstanding commitment to philanthropy, ChappelWood Financial was honored with the Community Inspiration Award from AssetMark in 2017.
“We encourage our clients to give generously of their time, talent, and treasure,” said King. “It’s important that we do the same.”
